Nobody sees you as an expert on *anything*. Here's how you are seen: as an annoyingly whiney-voiced, stupid-video-making mactard spaz, whose whole life revolves around focusing as many usenet spotlights on himself as possible, while simultaneously evangelizing for the religion of Pyschobabble and a presidential run for Neil the Grass Tyson. And you do this with that irritating starbuckspeak, "wow just wow" and "wait for it."

Yeah, it was when cc and some others were begging me to explain the basics of Objective-C and Swift and the like even though I am not a programmer. Totally idiotic discussion. But, sure, it was mostly cc and he often pretends to be knowledgeable about things he is completely clueless about. Think Peter and some of the other well known ignorant folks of COLA were involved, too. Was referring mostly to those in the conversation.

There was some thread a couple/few years back where Snit talked to his well respected, very senior expert programmer friend about why programming languages are case sensitive. Some of the answers were /classic/ - it compiles faster and some other nonsense like that.

The best part of that whole debate:
cc:
-----
Why would they be so popular if it had alot of disadvantages? Why
would all the insanely smart language designers of the past few
decades choose, and continue to choose, to create case sensitivite
languages? Why would Apple and NeXT, which did not like the
current state of languages, choose a little used, *case
sensitive*, combination of smalltalk and C? You're saying they
made a mistake not going with a case insensitive language. Well
they had the resources, and obviously the desire to use what they
thought was a better language (even if no one else uses it), so
why did they pick a case sensitive language that you alledge has
so many disadvantages? You keep running from these points. Of
course the answer is simple: Case sensitive languages are popular
by far because case sensitivity is better than case insensitivity.
This isn't music or movies, this is science and engineering. It's
popular for a reason.
-----
You don't understand why case sensitive languages are better. We
get that. You're an idiot. You also have an idiot, liar, friend
who thinks compiled microcontroller code is affect by case
sensitivity, lied about .NET guidelines and tools, and who duped
you into thinking he was an expert. So you have that going against
you too. You keep on thinking that case insensitive languages are
best and the world will continue to ignore you and teach, learn,
design, and use case sensitive languages as a vast majority.
-----
Snit, mocking cc's complete lack of ability to use logic:
-----
Why would QWERTY keyboards be so popular if it had a lot of
disadvantages? Why would all the insanely smart keyboard designers
of the past few decades choose, and continue to choose, to create
QWERTY keyboard layouts? Why would Apple and NeXT, which did not
like the current state of keyboard and designed their own, choose
to use a QWERTY layout? Anyone who disagrees is saying they made a
mistake not going with a Dvorak or something else. Well they had
the resources, and obviously the desire to use what they thought
was a better keyboard layout (even if no one else uses it), so why
did they pick a QWERTY layout that some allege has so many
disadvantages?
Anyone who disagrees is just running from these points. Of course
the answer is simple: QWERTY layouts are popular by far because
QWERTY is better than Dvorak or any other option. This isn't music
or movies, this is science and engineering. It's popular for a
reason.
-----
Some don't understand why QWERTY layouts are better. I get that.
Such people are idiots. And if anyone claims they have spoken to
an expert who disagrees than that expert is an idiot, too. They
can keep on thinking that Dvorak or other layout are best and the
world will continue to ignore you and teach, learn, design, and
use QWERTY layouts the vast majority of the time.

I loved how you just crumbled into whining and insults after that. :)

Below is the *partial* post from Snit. His anonymous "very experienced and respected expert programmer" gave some hilarious reasons why programming languages shouldn't be case sensitive. Example - someone at his company used a bad variable name and it caused a "great deal of lost work" and "it is costing the company a fair amount of time and energy and money." to change the variable name. If only this experienced respected programmer had an editor that supported "search and replace" or had access to sophisticated state of the art tools like 'sed' (circa 1973). Subject: Procmail Date: Saturday, January 25, 2014 5:46 PM MsgId: <CF097EDF.2C590%usenet@gallopinginsanity.com> <quote> OK, talked for some time with the programmer I know. Without giving much detail about him, he is *very* experienced, works at a huge corporation known for both their software and hardware and for being the biggest name in the industry he is in, and he is very well respected by his peers at the company (I know a number of them and have met many others at his wedding many years ago, etc.). Since you have nothing but an appeal to authority there is *no* doubt that he is an authority far better than you and anyone else in COLA. Bar none. He knows what he is talking about. His word holds more weight than yours and the rest of COLA combined. And I was surprised by what he said. I expected him to back case sensitivity. He did not. With that said: he did note this is a "religious" debate and you will find "real programmers" on both sides. But his basic view (and, remember, no matter what else you say he is *far* more of an authority than you are - no, I cannot prove this because I will not say who he is, but if your goal is to convince me you will fail... your words mean *nothing* to me and his words are very well respected): In other words: as a non-programmer doing basic research, I *leaned* toward what someone who is 1000x the "authority" holds to in a *very* strong way. You, with no authority, no support, no reason, and no experience have pushed a view which - as the real programmer notes - some programmers hold on to with religious fervor, but you cannot back it. </quote> LOL.

Just changing a variable name is not that hard (though you have to be careful to change it in all relevant places). The bigger issue is finding all the bugs caused by it. If you have two variables: "myDogHouse" and "myDoghouse" it can be very hard to find. Humans read those as the same (yes, I KNOW you can see the difference when it is pointed out, but it is easy to miss in thousands of lines of code). > If only this experienced respected programmer had an editor that supported > "search and replace" or had access to sophisticated state of the art tools > like 'sed' (circa 1973). Your argument assumes they would not have the two constructs with the same name other than case. Which backs what I found. Remember, when the reasons for and against having such names allowed were compared this is what was found: In support of NOT having such names be allowed: * every college we can find * every university we can find * every source found through Google Scholar * and even every blogger - mind boggling to see such agreement * a whole list of specific affects to back the view In support of having such names be allowed: * a language designed to be backward compatible with C is a lot like C! * popular equals best: go QWERTY and teaspoons (in the U.S)! * code snippets showing case sensitivity can be used If you think I left some out please let me know. Remember, I have no dog in this race... just noted the support offered by the "experts" in COLA was weak. And when talking to an actual expert he did not agree... but that is not proof. I am sure other REAL experts would. ... -- * Mint MATE Trash, Panel, Menu: <http://youtu.be/C0y74FIf7uE> * Mint KDE bugs or Easter eggs? <http://youtu.be/CU-whJQvtfA> * Mint KDE working with folders: <http://youtu.be/7C9nvniOoE0> * Mint KDE creating files: <http://youtu.be/N7-fZJaJUv8> * Mint KDE help: <http://youtu.be/3ikizUd3sa8> * Mint KDE general navigation: <http://youtu.be/t9y14yZtQuI> * Mavericks / Pages 5.1: <http://youtu.be/D3BPWANQoIk> * OS / Word Processor Comparison: <http://youtu.be/w6Qcl-w7s5c>

Every compiler will flag the instance of the variable which was written wrong. This has nothing to do with case-sensitivity at all. A case-sensitive compiler will flag the instance with the wrong case just as a compiler which is not case-sensitive will flag a variable which was just spelled wrong. And no sane programmer (which would exclude you in all imaginable cases) would use different variables which just have different case That you have no idea at all about programming is showing. And your "expert" (who knows programming so much better than everyone else) has no clue whatsoever, too In short: You have shown once again that you are really that lying imbecile, Snit Michael Glasser

If the compiler is calling it wrong to use "myDogHouse" and "myDoghouse" then why allow the two variables at all? Can you show an example of such an error? > And no sane programmer (which would exclude you in all > imaginable cases) would use different variables which just have different case If it is not an issue then why not?

And your "expert" > (who knows programming so much better than everyone else) has no clue > whatsoever, too Never underestimate Snit's ability to generate a 'story' when needed arises, just ramp up the ol' "psych degree" and presto! Instant programming "expert"! He has a story for every occasion, here's one where he's facing off with one of the U.S. government's evil minions, complete with 'path blocking' and 'voter threat'... such a timely 'story' it was, and it fit in so nicely with the rest of Snit's politicizing threads: -- My local library has a showing of FahrenHYPE 9/11 today - so I went to see what dirt they could pull up on Michael Moore and his movie. I expected they would be able to pull up plenty - after all, I have no doubt that the original F 9/11 was filled with innuendo, partial parts of stories, and perhaps even some factual errors. It was not produced to be even handed, and it clearly was not. That is what I expected. While there may have been a few minutes here and there where the movie was able to point to a flaw in Fahrenheit 9/11, for the most part it was nothing but even more over-the-top propaganda Fahrenheit 9/11 itself. It was filled with self-contradictory statement - such as when it claim terrorism was a clear thread to America - to outright lies - such as saying the war in Iraq is tied to 9/11. Mostly it was filled with whiney people spewing emotional baggage onto the screen. At the end of the movie some yahoo military type stood up at the front of the audience and started spewing BS about how if Kerry is elected all war heroes in the US will be tried as war criminals. All. He made that clear. The guy was whacked. So I stood up and politely started to walk out - not looking at him but also not hiding my disgust for what he was saying. He must have seen my eyes rolling, because he blocked me and started to go off on how I had better vote for Bush and how horrid Kerry is ... and even told me he could squish me like a bug. Well, now I was in front of a moderate sized audience with some crazed ex-special forces idiot spewing off at me... so I opened my mouth. I told him he was very much right - with one hand tied behind his back he could still probably think of 10 ways to kill me or make me wish I were dead. So what? He was trying to argue he was right based on this. He believed might makes right. That is about as far as his thinking could go. And he and Bush are in agreement. With that I turned my back to him and walked out the door. I was happy to see the rest of the audience following me. :) -- If this even happened (a *big* if), notice what can only be viewed as the punchline of this joke, "the rest of the audience" was "following" Snit when the movie was over, they didn't leave *because* the movie was over. LOL!

The "Snit" thing will continue to insist that he's right, though, in the face of experienced profressionals telling him he's wrong. Not to mention that these languages were designed by experts, in the first place. "Snit" knows best! It's just absurd that programmers have the choice of using a case-sensitive language! Hey, Kreep, why did it take you so many years to figure-out how ridiculous and relentlessly dishonest the thing is?
